TeamViewer App Token

Kuppo

Hi,

I am working on the TeamViewer integration. I have noticed that TeamViewer Community have created an app in my account. But when i checked it from profile i was not able to see either client id or secret.

Please let me know how to create such applications where id is not displayed and also let me know how to authorize them programatically.

Hi @Kuppo, 

Thankyou for posting.

As TeamViewer Community is working based on Lithium, once you have created an account on TeamViewer community with your TeamViewer account credentials, it will automaticaly sync the account information for both TeamViewer Management Console and TeamViewer Community (Lithium). And that is the reason why the prompt of grant access pop out when you sign in to TeamViewer Community.

The display of Apps under TeamViewer account profile shows that you currently allow TeamViewer Management Console to communicate to TeamViewer Community. You are able to revoke access on TeamViewer Management Console. It will not affected the uses for TeamViewer Management Console and TeamViewer Community, but a confirmation will pop up every time when you use TeamViewer account to login to eamViewer Community.

Hope it explains.

Hi @Ying_Q ,

Thanks for taking your time to write the explanation. I just have one more question, all TeamViewer app is uniquely identified by the client-id. I believe Community have already created an application for syncing the user data. Is it possible to create such app for my custom application too?

Usecase:

I have a custom application which i need to integrate with TeamViewer. So that users can use TeamViewer featuers from my application. This is applicable for all the uses who logs in to my application. As per my understanding I need to have a TeamViewer app with required scopes and users need to approve it before the app access user's data. How to create this TeamViewer application and from where should I create?

Thanks
